Day 3: Out of the Closet

Whew! Yesterday, for my 100 Things Challenge action, I went through two closets and just started pulling clothes off the hangers throwing them onto the floor. I started with work clothes. I mentioned that I was retired. I was a teacher. So, good-bye teacher clothes. I really don't need these anymore and more importantly, its a good idea to give them away now so that someone else can use them before they go out of style.
(I retired two years ago! What am I waiting for???).

I ended up with two large bags of pretty decent clothes and I drove them over to our local City Mission. They have a program where women who are entering the workforce can shop for work clothes for free. These are women who come from very disadvantaged situations and really need a hand getting started. This is connected to a community training program for work skills development.

Well, that was easy. I think I'll take a pic of the two closets with the empty hangers and post it here. I can't believe I wasted all that space holding onto to those clothes for two years.

I'm not finished "releasing" clothes yet, but this was a good start. Once I get them down to a managable amount, then I'll add the keepers to my 100 Things Challenge list.

What do you do with your unwanted clothes?
